"Hello to all the children. My voice is a little bit harsher, expecting the children bear the hard of hearing. I would like to introduce self, my name is Richard and a doctor. I will share some thoughts on his life and was pleased to be invited to the professors. Hope will help the children how to think when started by industry to become the dentist surgery as well as thinking about the things around us.

Since young, I was a typical product of the society today, a fairly successful products that society requires. I grew up in a family of standard of living is below average. I was told by the Board around and the environment that the happiness. Success means wealth. With this thought, I become extremely small right from contention.

Not just a good school, I need to success in all areas, from the collective activity to run the race, everything. I need to win the Cup, to succeed, must be the prize, national prize, everything. I am very contention. I am in medical school and become a doctor. Sure some of you know that in the field of medicine, eye surgery is one of the major hard on. I also get in and be of research scholarship NUS (National University of Singapore-Singapore National UNIVERSITY) developed a laser to cure eye diseases.

While researching, I have two patents, one of the medical instruments and a about lasers. But I know not all this achievement, not gives me wealth. After school finished, I decided that the pursuit of eye surgery industry takes too much time while out doing investment earn more money. If the children to Italy, the last few years, cosmetic industry are up, earn money blocks. So, I decided to remove the eye surgery industry in the middle and jump through open Surgery Center in the province.

The children know, a contradiction, a person can not have fun when charged $ 20 for a general doctor, but that person also did not hesitate to pay $ 10,000 to the abdominal liposuction, 15 thousand dollar for breasts ... Do not need to think much, right? Why want the General without aesthetic doctor? So, instead of healing, I decided to become this beauty.

The very prosper. New patients first wait a week, then three weeks, following up a month, two months, three months. Too many patients. I am stunned. I hired a physician, two doctors, three doctors, and four doctors. In just the first year, we had over a million. But what is enough because I become stupid. I began to promote to Nanyang, attracting the "tai-tais" (also used to refer to her consort as many money) those who want to have the surgery in the blink of an eye. Life is up.

What do I do with the excess money squabbling? Last week I pastime? Usually I come to gather in Club racing . I'm shopping for my own a race car. We arrived at Sepang in Malaysia and racing. My life is like that. With cash, I shop the Ferrari. At that time the 458 is not yet out, only the 430. One of my former classmates who made Bank. He bought the red color that you desire. I shop the silver.

What do I do after having the car? To buy the House, built in the door. We started looking for land to build a House. I have lived my life like? We think that it needs to integrate with the rich, famous. We started communicating with Americans, the riches and fame, as Miss world or the founder of the Internet, what to eat in every restaurant, including restaurant chef's famous Michelin.

I was going to be everything in life, to have the peak of his career and all. It is of a year ago. In sports clubs, I think I have everything all tame and reached the Summit of glory. But I was wrong. I don't overpower everything. About March of last year, suddenly I began to suffer from back pain. I think maybe I normally the mobilization.

I went to SGH (Singapore General Hospital: the hospital of Singapore) and thanks to you learn to do the MRI (dark Tan soi shooting method the Department in person to diagnosis of diseases) to see for sure is not to dislocated vertebrae or other stuff. That evening, he called me and said the spinal cord changes in my spine. I asked like that? I know it means how but can't accept the truth. I almost want to say: "he says any damage?" I'm about to go exercise.

The following day we had more more examination-including PET scans, and they find I'm in the 4th period of lung cancer. I thought: "from where that out?". Cancer has spread to the brain, spine and inline. You know, I totally thought I was tame all, have reached even of life, but then I lost it all.

Here is a snapshot of the lungs. Look, each dot is nang cancer. And really, I have tens of thousands of capsules in the lungs. I was told that even with chemotherapy, I also only be 3, 4 months maximum. My life crushed, of course, how do you get out? I am depressed, hopeless, that I had everything before.

What conflict is everything I have been-the success, bonus Cup, vehicles, homes, all the things that I think has brought happiness to me; When I was down mentally, desperate, don't bring me joy. I couldn't hug the Ferrari that sleep. That can not happen.

They don't bring a solace in the last months of my life. I thought these things is happiness; not so. What really brings me joy in the last ten months is in contact with the relatives, friends, those who sincerely care for me, laughed and cried with me. They can see the pain, endure that I underwent. This really brings happiness to me. The things I own, bring happiness, but no, I wouldn't feel happy to think of.

The children know, the coming new year. Before, I usually do? Well, then I usually drive a flashy car its a round, visiting relatives, flaunt with your friends. I thought it was fun, really fun. But I think, my friends are earning WarBirds can share the same joy I feel when I boast sleek cars? Certainly is not. They lived hard, ride. Really what I do just makes them more ganh hate, even when the hatred.

This we call the object of jealousy. I brag to fill his pride and his ego. They didn't bring joy to a friend, loved as I thought.

Let me share with you a different story. When I was your age, I am in the King Edward VII. I have a friend who is quite strange for me. Her name is Jennifer. We remain friends. When we drop in, if she saw a snail on the road, she will pick it up and put it back in the carpet of grass. I wonder why to do so? Why must to dirty hands? Just a snails. The truth is that she has seen the risk of screws can be crushed to death. For me, if not then way deserve to be crushed, just as natural law. Contrary too, right?

I was trained to be a doctor from the mind, empathy. But I do not have. After graduation, I worked in medical oncology at NYH. Every day, I witnessed the death of Oncology. I see all the pain that the patient must endure. I see all the pain medications, and they are just a few minutes to click on. I see them wrestle with his last breath, see all. But this is just a job. I came to the clinic every day, blood for drugs but patients have "it" for me? Do not. I just do the work and eager to go home to work on his own.

The pain endured by patients who have "it"? Do not. Of course I know all the words to describe the excruciating pain that they are experiencing, but actually I don't "feel" was until I became a patient. Until now, I understand their feelings. If the children asked me if the life was remade, I want to become a doctor. I will respond to you is "Yes". Because now I really understand them. I pay dearly for this lesson.

As soon as the children in the first year, begin the journey to becoming a dentist procedure, allow me to challenge the children two things. Obviously, all the children here will start working. The children will become rich. I assure the children that, just growing teeth, the children earn silver of thousands, tangle money idea. And actually, there's nothing wrong with a successful, wealthy, absolutely nothing wrong. The only annoying thing is that many of us, like myself, could not restrain.

Why I say so? Because the more accumulation, the more, I want more. The more desires, I become more stupid. As I mentioned before, I want to own more, reaching the peak of glory as the society would like to train with us. I became so stupid that not what matter to me anymore. The patient is just a source of income and I squeezed every penny from the viaduct.

Sometimes we forget to serve anyone. We misled anybody serve far beyond themselves. That happened to me. Although it is in medicine or dentistry, I can tell you right now that, while the doctor, sometimes we recommend that patients treat not having, not visibly and even when not needed.

Right at this moment, I know who is my friend, sincerely worried for me and who just wants to make money by trading in "hope" for me. We lose conscience because we just want to make money.

Worse, I can tell the children hear, the past few years, we have been talking bad peers, "rival" of us and didn't find offensive. If lowering them down to lift themselves up, we do. That is happening in the medical sector and in every place. I challenge the children not to lose her conscience. I pay dearly for the lesson. And I hope the children will never be the same.

The second thing, about the number of patients, whether in the public or private hospital. I can tell you, when I'm in the hospital, with medical records, I just want to get it done as quickly, as possible. I just want them off my disease clinic as quickly as possible, because there are too many patients. The fact is that. This is just a job, a job. At that time, I have really known about the feelings of my patients how not? Do not. Fear, anxiety, I really understand what they are going through? No, it wasn't until when the problem happened to me. I think this is a big mistake for our society.

Before leaving England to back the tips useful for you the child in your life.

We are trained to become medical salaries, but we don't feel for the patient. I don't require you to touched, so also not professional, just ask we have really tried to find out their anguish? The great part is, I can sure as fins. So, I am challenging you always put yourself in the position of the patient.

Because of the pain, the grief and worry, fear is very real with them though not really for the children. Right now, I'm the 5th chemotherapy cure. I can give the children know it's horrible. Chemotherapy is that the children do not want to even his enemies have to undergo because of being released, pain, vomiting.

Terrible feeling! And now, with little capacity left, I look to other cancer patients because I truly understand the pain they endured. Somewhat belatedly and meager! The children are both promising forward with all the talent and enthusiasm. I challenge the children, in addition to his patient, understand that there are many people out there are really difficult, really painful, don't think that only poor people had to gauge. This is not true. The poor in capital available for nothing, they readily accept. Therefore, they are more than happy the children and me. But there are many who are suffering of mental, physical, emotional, physical ...

They are real. We choose to do because we don't want to know or to the existence of them. So don't forget, when the children are successful, go with the hand to the people who need the help. Anything they do can bring to a big difference for them. I am now in the position of the receiver, I understand, seeing as people really care, encourage yourself. So that I can still talk to the children today.

I will stop with the following words, in his book entitled "The third day with Morris". Maybe some of you have read this book. Everyone knows that there will be days to die, well, we all know as fins. But the truth is, no one believes, because if the news we have been living a different way. When I must face death, I his everything, only gathered on Monday. Truth in contrast that, just when about to die I should know how to live. I know this sounds through looks vague, but it's the truth and I are going through.

Don't let the children Board security social way of life. Don't let the environment the children what to do. This has happened to me. I'm so happy. I hope they rethink and will decide for your own life. Not because someone else told ban that is the children decide to live for themselves, or bring up really nice for the lives of others. True happiness doesn't have to be when only live for themselves. The truth is not as I thought. I'm summaries, in life, we know to arrange hierarchies as soon, as possible.

Don't be like me. I don't have any other way and had to pay dearly for this lesson.=
